the first will just laugh

Posting up two days worth of workouts since i didn't make a post yesterday. Totally meant to, just had to get a presentation in order for this morning. It was a fun presentation for me at least, being in GDC mode and taking stock of how I carry myself is always fun. I take every opportunity to speak to groups of any size in the days leading up to GDC, and it is literally days at this point. I never sweat the content of my talks, but the delivery is crazy. I want people to be engaged, I want people to have fun, and I want people to at least take one major point with them, so anything I can do to make my content more memorable is fine by me...

But dude, seriously? A bear costume..?

So I've found that a 5x5x5 dumbbell workout can be done in 30 minutes, provided rest periods are kept solid. That's 5x5 for 5 stations. Tomorrow i want to toss in a bodyweight set and a power set, so we'll see if I can keep it to the 30 minutes, having 15 on the backend to do some bagwork is great. I feel like my strikes are getting more solid per session, and my adds hurt less now that I've gotten some kick tech back. My fight got moved:( but I'll take the time for some additional conditioning and training. Wrestling starts up tomorrow, so I'm jazzed about that. Wrestling is a whole different kind of grappling, looking forward to really working the explosives.

Sweet jeebus I've missed Crosspit, tho it's only been a week and some change. The high intensity stuff is the highlight of my week, i imagine once i get to kickboxing and mma i'll get more of that. Still feeling my way through the new job, and though it affords me a greater degree of flexibility, still want to get my head around everything first before I settle on a final schedule.
